The main ingredients of flares include strontium nitrate (which provides the color?it burns with a bright red or orange-red flame), potassium perchlorate or potassium nitrate?(as powerful oxidizer, which makes the strontium burn rapidly), and/or an energetic fuel
such as magnesium (which burns very brightly) or aluminum is added to give the extra energy needed for a fast combustion. Safe Boating requires Visual Distress Signals Boaters must have three flares in order to meet the visual distress signal requirement for
